Union Orthotics & Prosthetics CO.

Union Orthotics & Prosthetics CO., a for-profit limited liability company based in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, manufactures and supplies customized prosthetic limbs, orthotic devices, and prosthetic sockets to the Department of Veterans Affairs as a prime contractor, competing on a fully open basis without set-aside designation across 2,112 federal awards.

Union Orthotics operates as a 100% prime contractor with no subcontractor footprint. The company serves a single customer agency—the Department of Veterans Affairs, specifically Veterans Integrated Service Network 4 (VISN 4), the Western Pennsylvania regional VA network—which accounts for 423 awards and $38.7 million in combined potential value (87% of the portfolio). A single outlier award to VISN 5 represents $1.5 million. The portfolio spans over two decades, with awards dating to 2004, though recent activity has moderated: 19 awards in 2022, 26 in 2023, 28 in 2024, 16 in 2025, and 4 awards through mid-2026.

Concrete capability work centers on prosthetic and orthotic component manufacturing and fitting services. Representative awards include a $29.6 million single-award indefinite delivery contract (awarded December 2022, running through November 2027) for orthotic devices and services including ankle-foot orthoses, knee-ankle-foot orthoses, spinal orthoses, patient assessments, castings, fittings, and training; a $750,530 multiple-award blanket purchase agreement (established April 2021, running through March 2031) for prosthetic socket replacements, electric knee replacements, and advanced prosthetic technologies; and individual BPA calls and purchase orders ranging from approximately $2,300 to $753,700 for below-knee prostheses, above-knee prostheses, microprocessor sockets, prosthetic knees, and socket replacements. Recent call orders (2025–2026) include a $47,522.92 Alaska prosthetic limb purchase order (March 2026), a $31,534.29 microprocessor socket BPA call (February 2026), a $46,280.63 above-knee socket replacement call (November 2025), and a $43,813.56 below-knee prosthetic socket call (November 2025).

The vendor operates from multiple Pennsylvania fabrication and assembly locations, including Arsenal, Aspinwall, Butler, Erie, Greensburg, and Sharpsburg, with work performance tied to specific VISN 4 veteran populations across the region. Award classification under NAICS 424910 (Medical, Dental, and Hospital Equipment and Supplies Merchant Wholesalers) and 339113 (Surgical Appliance and Supplies Manufacturing) reflects the medical device supply and light manufacturing posture; PSC codes concentrate on Medical and Surgical Instruments, Equipment, and Supplies (1,322 awards) and Maintenance/Repair/Rebuild of Medical Equipment (777 awards).

The two principal indefinite delivery vehicles—the $29.6 million orthotic devices IDC and the $750,530 socket-replacement BPA—drive the vehicle portfolio, with 192 and 43 task orders respectively, plus secondary IDCs and BPAs accounting for smaller order volumes. Awards obligated total $9.3 million of the $44.3 million combined potential value, indicating 21% obligation rate typical of firm-fixed-price prosthetic supply contracts. Within the next twenty-four months, nine awards with combined potential value of $294 thousand reach ultimate completion, representing modest recompete exposure for the vendor relative to its anchoring long-term vehicles.
